Communicating With Our Best Friend: Understanding the Body Language of Dogs
Where:
Lincoln Square Village, Urbana
When:
Monday Mar 31, 2008
6:30 pm
to 8:00 pm
Description:
This class features two concurrent sessions: one for adults and one for children ages 7 to 11. Through photos, video, and discussion, adults will learn how to identify and interpret dog body postures. This skill is invaluable in order to communicate more effectively with your own dog and to "read" dogs you encounter outside of the home. In a separate space, children will also learn how to interpret dog body language in a format suited just for them. The emphasis for children will be staying safe around dogs. Children must be accompanied by an adult. Children 12 years and older can join the adult session. Instructors: Linda Case, Adjunct Assistant Professor at the University of Illinois College of Veterinary Medicine and Anna Lutgen from the CARE Center. Registration required. Fee: $5 per person or $10 per household.For more information:
